"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

If your cousin used one of those for deer there would be nothing left of the deer to eat. You MIGHT be able to use it with Moose, Caribou or Elk...but even that would be kinda iffy. The gun is so powerful it will rip a deer to shreds...with the exception of head shots from a considerable distance.

are you sure you don't mean a .300 magnum, a 300 savage is no more powerfull then a .308, and they both work fine for deer. Some people even use 300 mags for deer. Ive seen my cousin shot many of deer and none were ripped apart.

well, i guess it depends on the kind of bullet to, you can get bullets for a
.30-30 that will ruin a deer.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Nope...it was a 300 Savage...and (at least the one I had) the bullets you are supposed to use with the gun are way too much for deer. I didn't hunt with it. I shot it on a military firing range...always prone...after the first time standing it threw me back a couple of feet and knocked me on my kiester.

If I had of shot a deer with that gun the meat would have been too damaged.
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

Yea, they do kick like a mule. My buddy cut his forehead from the scope when he shot it. They are a kick ass gun.

I bruised my shoulder everytime I shot it...but I only bruised my arse that first time when I tried to shoot it standing up. Bad idea, that was. I didn't know you could even bruise your entire kiester like that. It turned purple and green and everything...yucky stuff. Prone all the way after that.

oh, thx for the tip. I just searched it and found them for like 400 bucks, field grade, which means they have some wear i guess. Id probably use it hunt anyways. Im not to sure if its legal for hunting hear though.
I finally obtained a Garand... it's a 1986 repro from Springfield Armory (primary gov't contractor for M1 garands) that I bought from a older fellow who needed to liquidate his guns. Price was right, the gun is in excellent shape. I'm practicing loading, racking, unloading with inert training rounds, before I spend $1.50 a shot at the range! :)

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

If I had the need for a gun or the means to buy it a Walther PPK. Just for the Bond nerd in me. But my neighborhood is all families and quiet and I have a pitbull that would lick an intruder to death.

Retarded... do you guys even know the meaning of awesome guns? Apparently not.

Heres a few of the coolest weapons never made:

The Pulse Rifle from ALIENS (The best machine gun ever concieved)

The LRM Gun from ALIENS (The one vasquez uses when she says ´lets rock!!!´)

The Alien Drug Dealer Gun from I COME IN PEACE (and you go in pieces mutfuker, what a great line!)

The Convenant Plasma Rifle (The Splash damage is so wicked)

The Laser Tag Black and Red Pistol

The Laser Rifle from V

Judge Dreadd´s Pistol (in the movie)

That large sonic cannon on Genosis to wipe out the jedi

The ´Sound Machine´ Gun that Paul Maudib uses when hes riding the sandworm in Dune. (The 80s Movie)

Han Solos holdout Blaster (The one he uses to fry greedo with)

The cannon on top of the millenium falcon (who wouldnt want to fire that off)

The Noisy Cricket from MIB

Ash´s shotgun from Army of Darkness

The guns used by the duloks in the second Ewok movie (The ones wrapped in cloth)

The rifle used by amanda in the movie Space Raiders by Roger Corman (excellent movie)

Doctor Who´s sonic screwdriver (not always a gun)

Best overall REAL GUN scene in any movie (Tremors 1, when fred and wife are shooting at the worm in their house)

Second best scene (Terminator 2, shootout from inside the armored car)
Uhh... okay :|

I agree with your last two, but the others are just a wee bit too fantastical for me.

Personally, this would be my armory had i the financial freedom to get them (hopefully sooner rather than later)

Rifle: XM-8 with full kit.
SMG: FN P90
Shotgun: Pancor ****ing Jackhammer.
Pistol: Sig Sauer P229 (Chambered for .357 SIG)

as far as nostalgia pieces, i'd love an M1 Garand to hang on my wall. I'd also kill to get one of those Prototype XM-29 OICW weapons. too bad they were cancelled :mad:

Guns are pedestrian. If we're talking dream weaponry then there is only one logical choice - the self-regenerating bio-weapon - Guyver. (fast forward to 4:20 if you don't want to watch all 6min) 100Mega Watt+ Particle Cannons anyone?

But in all seriousness - Barrett XM109 Please.

I have a thing for anime.

The Pulse Rifle from ALIENS (The best machine gun ever concieved)

Which was a prop made from a Thompson SMG and a SPAS-12 shotgun


The LRM Gun from ALIENS (The one vasquez uses when she says ´lets rock!!!´)

A prop made from a Steadicam harness and a .50 cal Browning M2

The Alien Drug Dealer Gun from I COME IN PEACE (and you go in pieces mutfuker, what a great line!)

As yes, the Calico 9mm machinepistol.

The Convenant Plasma Rifle (The Splash damage is so wicked)

The Laser Tag Black and Red Pistol

I had laser tag, and wished it was really firing a destructive bolt of energy.

The Laser Rifle from V

Another fictitious weapon I wish I had.

Judge Dreadd´s Pistol (in the movie)

The "Lawgiver?" Not bad, but the genetic gun lock was a silly invention
for the movie. The Judge Dredd comic is a masterpiece of dark comedy.

That large sonic cannon on Genosis to wipe out the jedi

Yup... very cool too.

The ´Sound Machine´ Gun that Paul Maudib uses when hes riding the sandworm in Dune. (The 80s Movie)

Barely remember it from seeing it in the theater in 1984.

Han Solos holdout Blaster (The one he uses to fry greedo with)

I liked all Star Wars blasters... the best part of that scene was Han's ruthlessness in drawing and shooting first. BTW, the correct
response to anyone threatening your life with a gun or knife.
Action beats reaction.

The cannon on top of the millenium falcon (who wouldnt want to fire that off)

Nice blaster array... Lucas was fascinated with WWII... look up ".50 cal turret" or "ball turret" to see the real-life progenitor of that one.

The Noisy Cricket from MIB

I felt that gun was simply a silly visual gag in a silly movie.

Ash´s shotgun from Army of Darkness

Which one? The double-barreled one, or the lever-action one?
Double-barreled shotguns are for hunting ducks or quail...
Repeating shotguns are the real deal for the two-legged varmints.



The guns used by the duloks in the second Ewok movie (The ones wrapped in cloth)

The rifle used by amanda in the movie Space Raiders by Roger Corman (excellent movie)

Doctor Who´s sonic screwdriver (not always a gun)

Best overall REAL GUN scene in any movie (Tremors 1, when fred and wife are shooting at the worm in their house)

Yes, now THAT is a rec room... The guys who made that film had to have been gun guys - I love how the shell cleaner is what started the attack... if you look carefully at the gun case as Burt smashes it open, there's a neat little display of ammunition set on a wood block.

Second best scene (Terminator 2, shootout from inside the armored car)

Awesome scene... I loved it when the armored car overturned and you can see all of the bullet holes on the roof.
See above.

M249 SAW

I can't legally own one, but when im in the army I'll either be equipped with that or the F-88 Steyr.

Those aren't exactly hunting rifles but they do get the job done. :D

I'd like to own a rebuilt M1911 pistol too.

Here is a list of my favorite firearms:
16 gauge remington pump-action shotgun,
16 gauge? P*ssy. :p If your shoulder can't handle a proper 12-gauge then it's time to hit the gym.

I'll post pics of my modest collection sometime. Let's just say ATF has my information on-file. :D
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
